Police Chief Gregg Hunter said the male bicyclist, who was not
identified because of his age, was riding eastbound through the
intersection. Witnesses reported that he ran the red light and was
struck by a 2005 Nissan Altima, said Hunter, who noted that it was
turning dark at the time.

North Mississippi Medical Center-Eupora EMS transported the youth to
the hospital and he was airlifted to NMMC in Tupelo, where he was
treated and released Saturday.

Hunter said the bicyclist was not wearing a helmet when he was hit.
No citations were issued.
